Rails - Mar 2011 - Routing after logging in

Hello:
I am using Authlogic in my application. I am using before_filter to
restrict access to certain sections of my web application and that is
working (i.e. if i am not logged in and try to access those pages - the
application gives me the login form to log-in). However, every time I
login - it brings me to ''root_url''. How do I define the path
so instead
of bringing me back to ''root_url'' it takes me to the
restricted page
where I was trying to go in the first page?

Here are the code files:

--create in my user_sessions_controller.rb:
class UserSessionsController < ApplicationController

  def create
    @user_session = UserSession.new(params[:user_session])
    if @user_session.save
      flash[:notice] = "Successfully logged in."
      redirect_to root_url
    else
      render :action => ''new''
    end
  end

end

------------------
--my application_controller.rb:
class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
  # application_controller.rb
filter_parameter_logging :password

helper_method :current_user

private

def current_user_session
  return @current_user_session if defined?(@current_user_session)
  @current_user_session = UserSession.find
end

def current_user
  return @current_user if defined?(@current_user)
  @current_user = current_user_session && current_user_session.record
end

def require_user
      unless current_user
        store_location
        flash[:notice] = "You must be logged in to access this page"
        redirect_to new_user_session_url
        return false
      end
end

def require_no_user
  if current_user
    store_location
    flash[:notice] = "You must be logged out to access this page"
    redirect_to account_url
    return false
  end
end

def store_location
  session[:return_to] = request.request_uri
end

def redirect_back_or_default(default)
  redirect_to(session[:return_to] || default)
  session[:return_to] = nil
end
end
